Antrim SHC final: Cushendall edge Dunloy to retain Antrim hurling title

It wasn’t a huge gap considering the wind and goalkeeper Ryan Elliott made a stunning save from a Neil McManus penalty. McManus did land the 65 and at the break, this left six between them with Dunloy 1-8 to 0-5 ahead.

It took a while for Cushendall to find their range in the second half, but they began to eat into the lead with McLaughlin, Fred McCurry, Fergus McCambride, Paddy McGill and a monster free from goalkeeper Cononr McAilister bringing them to within one.

They hit the front as Ed McQuillan cracked home, but Dunloy responded in kind soon after as Seaan Elliott buried a penalty after older brother Nigel had been impeded.

But the Ruairis powered on with five of the next six to lead by a goal late on and although Paul Shiels clipped over a pair of late frees for Dunloy, it was a goal they needed as Cushendall claimed the Volunteer Cup for a 16th time.
